Left the cloud-heavy Denmark
Next: Poznan, PL
So I am on the road again after a very short visit to Copenhagen, DK. But I had time to buy a DK phone number, talk with some Danish models over the phone curious about MnS and spend the evening with the very talanted make-up artist Gabriella Tipsa Bruun.
She had some friends that really are the type of models many customers are looking for now: warm, good looking and over 30.
I hope to be able to recruit them to Models-n-Shoots but by experience I know many of them can not accept the truth that the get job offerings as a model: "No, I am way to old for modeling."
Ladies! Time to upgrade your ego! :-)
I leave you with a nice picture from DK close to the port.
Time to get back in the bus and hit the German roads towards Pozńan.

Bømlo and Bergen: check
Tour now: Oslo, Next: Stockholm
The one who invented Norway did not like traveling. What other reason is there to destroy any quick driving with mountains, fjords and islands? On top of that, throw some rain and early darkness, and you have the west coast in Norway in a nutshell.
Or maybe go viking gods just want me to get my IFR pilot license so I can fly there, even in that weather. Stavanger-Bergen in the bus: 4,5 hours. With the plane: 30 min.
But I finally made it out to Bømlo and make real of Birgitta's invitation. It is not everyday you are on historic ground with a goat farmer. She is a good cook as well. :-)
I think you get it—it was a good stay!
I would have loved to take a tour on the island but I had to work. It is a lot of things to do before launch and during daytime I am booked with calling ad agencies trying to find job for our Talents.
The shoot was challenging. To rainy to be outside and no location close, so we had to stick to the house. But the goal for the shoot was to show different side of Birgitta, making her portfolio wider.
But on my way to Bergen I got some peaks of the island.
But soon it was dark as all my other legs. "Is that a mountain? Where's the road?"
After 4 bloody hours, thanks to ferries and funky roads I was in Bergen. Ready to shoot Tale with help from her friend Karoline.
But according to their fridge they where ready for something else. :-)
Once again, due to lack of time, darkness and rain, we tried get some portfolio shots in her apartment. We got two I guess and Karoline is rather talented not only in partying, but making chicken salad as well. Best one I had for years actually!
Then it was time (01:00) to head towards Oslo. I got to Voss and then I went back in the bus and went to bed. So today, no time for calls but a super-sweet drive in the mountains.
And here are the pictures!
I will be interesting to see if they work.

Our new boss: Martin
Tour now: Bømlo, Next: Bergen
So I am off on the Customer Launch Tour but a lot off things are going on at home. The techies are making Models-n-Shoots better, right now fixing the last bit of VIP customer demo switch, and making easier interface for Talents to handle their Portfolio.
But getting closer and closer to launch, we better have someone keeping it all together so we recruited a boss to Models-n-Shoots Europe AB.
Please welcome my old friend and colleague Martin Pettersson!
We got to know each other in Linköping and got more and more contact since Martin is very interested in photography. So now and Martin worked we me as a project manager and assistant for shoot, especially on my Maltese shoots. You will find him in some of my behind-the-scenes pictures.
It was actually during all the work getting all shoots together with the right team that the idea started of doing a service/application to handle the process from searching to replies from models. So Martin has been around since the start of the project and was one of the first to become a share holder of the company when we started last year.
So Martin will adding strength to our sales department and take care of the paper work at home, while I continue to focus on the developing the service, finding VIP customers and the right Talents.
Rock on! :-)

The Gay Police is leaving Stavanger
Tour now: Bømlo, Next: Bergen
I guess I will have a memory for life from Stavanger: the Gay Police.
It was not really planned.
After the shoot with Carita the apartment filled up with people ready for Halloween, while I was finishing work.
When finished, I shut down my computer, starting to actually talk with the fun people around, had a couple of beer and sharing some shots of Żubrówka, trying to catch up. But I dig not bring any outfit for the night!
Then me and Carita came up with the idea of me too having bunny ears, so we checked out her girl friends room. We did not find any but there it was... the police hat.
Since I got a Belstaff leather jacket the idea was set. I sneaked into the bathroom, put on the jacket with nothing under, added the police cap and went out to the living room with my new looks.
Everyone started to laugh and clapping hands. :-)
Since I do not live in Stavanger I just realized I really had to wear this getting out. (Not from the closet, fools!)
The effect was... intense!
I got high-fives, knuckle bumps and smiles the whole evening.
I could walk up to a group of people loudly announcing "Gay Police!", browsing them and then starting to remove the women with a "Not interesting!" and work my way towards the scared guys. :-)
And I got both men and women coming up dancing with more or less hands on my chest. :-)
There where a lot taking pictures, some quite nervously asking "Can I have a picture with you?" giving their camera to their friend. :-)
Next to me, around me and sometimes on me, was Carita dancing as well.
Here are some dialogs of the night:
-Is she your girlfriend?
-No, I am only her bodyguard.
-Really!?
-Yes.
-Can I dance with her?
-It is up to her but I will be watching.
Well, pretty much everyone ask me before even talking to her. Hahaha! Poor guys! :-)
And of course I intimidated the security guards on my way out of the club and at Burger King.
Now, it is time to pack my gear and head off to my next tour stop: Bømlo, a small island between Stavanger and Bergen.
See ya!
